Quarkonium correlation functions at finite temperature in the charm to bottom region

Abstract

Quarkonium correlation functions at finite temperature were studied in a region of the quark mass for charmonia to bottomonia in quenched lattice QCD with $O(a)$-improved Wilson quarks. Our simulations were performed on large isotropic lattices at temperatures in the range from about 0.80$T_c$ to 1.61$T_c$. We investigated quarkonium behavior in terms of temperature dependence as well as quark mass dependence of the quarkonium correlation functions and related quantities at both vanishing and finite momenta.
